CANNABIS INSIDE

Research Overview

At Bedrocan, we strive to bridge the gap between patients’ need for cannabis and the quality standards of modern medicine. That’s the focus of our research. We build strong academic and private research partnerships and conduct our own independent studies. In the end, we share what we learn.

Conditions

Bedrocan has forged a path for finding much-needed answers about whether there is an effective use for medicinal cannabis in all sorts of conditions. Currently a number of clinical trials are underway to assess whether our products can improve quality of life by alleviating symptoms.

Administration Forms

Cannabinoids act differently depending on how they are administered into the body (such as ingested in an oil or inhaled with a vaporizer). To understand these differences, we continue to study novel methods of administration (not smoking), as well as exploring what people are doing today (smoking). This type of research led us to perform the studies which allowed the Volcano Medic® vaporizer to be approved as a medical device for cannabis inhalation.

Social Research

Cannabis is used by many thousands of people to treat the symptoms of various health conditions, often outside the care and oversight of a physician. In our effort to connect the laboratory with the realities of patient use, we undertake research exploring the behaviours and preferences of those who use cannabis medicinally. We collect information on dosing, indications, administration forms, cannabis varieties, and more.

Cannabis Chemistry

We work to understand exactly what’s in our cannabis and what’s in the cannabis people use every day. The advantage of Bedrocan’s different cannabis strains is that they are research-grade and fully standardised. This means the results can be compared across many studies using the same varieties.

Reviews and Cognitive Effects

One of our goals is to collect and translate the existing science on cannabis into a form that people can understand and use. We also take on projects that seem interesting to us, and some that put the rumours about cannabis to the test.

Independent Human Research Using Bedrocan Products

Our products are being used by different independent researchers internationally. We closely observe emerging human research, since we are always interested in obtaining new knowledge on how our cannabis varieties affect people.
